The vibrato is TOTALLY made by bouncing up and down…it has little pistons on its fingers that make the sound, and y’know what? It SOUNDS like a vibrato where the fingers are bouncing up and down! I only know this because one of my students came in saying he’d figured out how to do vibrato…and proceeded to bounce his finger up and down. I nipped it in the bud, immediately, telling him that he is NEVER to do that ever again. I also told him that we would learn vibrato as soon as he has mastered tonalization. (Crazy book 2 kid’s on musette.)

Thanks for posting this! My students will get a kick out of it…I’m sure they would just love to critique its posture and technique. Can’t argue with that Kreisler Highway, though, it keeps that bow in exactly the same spot!
